Why America Needs Nonpartisan Elections

The American people are fed up with partisan politics. In a recent Gallup poll Americans named dissatisfaction with government as the number one problem facing our country today. To change the way our elected officials work for the American people, we must change how they are elected. We need to start with the first round of voting, the primaries.

86% of Americans believe the government is broken

43% of Americans, including 50% of Millennials, identify as politically independent

70% of Americans support open primaries

Primaries are conducted with taxpayer money. The closed presidential primaries in 2016 cost taxpayers a quarter billion dollars, yet left out 26.3 million voters
